I am still on a much needed break from my blog, and haven't created a card since September.
I miss creating so very much, but the Lord is asking me to be still.
Stress causes some big problems with my health.
The start of start is winding down, monthly blood draws and some med tweaking has helped.
But to be fair to all my Design Teams, I decided to step down from them all at this team.
I am just not able to give 100% commitment and couldn't decide which teams to stay on with.
I enjoyed each one of them, getting to know the other DT members, the friendships that were built
and the generous sharing of designs and talents by the artist, blog owners and DT members.
I have even started doodling some designs for some digi's,
which I would like to share in the beginning of the new year!
But today, I wanted to share three of my cards that recently made Top 3 or were Highlighted!
In September I decided that when I made a card for a Design Team,
I was going to enter them into challenges as well, as I have missed doing challenges just for fun!
It's proved to be very rewarding to be recognized for my talents.
I also won two prizes for challenge entries last month, which has never happened before!
See link here
The last card I made for DT at Southern Girls Challenge using an image from Delicious Doodles
I was highlighted at The Sweet Stop Sketch Blog because she could pick just 3
Highlighted for SSS175 on 09.14.2012
This card was made for DT Made Especially for You at using 3 balloons.
Entered into Sketches by Carly and won Top 3 09.28.2012 for Sketch challenge #66
This card was for DT at Pixie Dust Studio for a Pixie Flix.
I also entered into iClassygirl and made Top3 for Sketch Challenge #5 on 10.01.2012
So glad you stopped by today, I hope you enjoyed what I had to share,
even though they are creations from last month!

ReplyDeleteHi Karen! I just got home and read that you have to leave the team. So sorry to hear that, but I know that some things are needed. I pray you will be feeling better soon and that you will enjoy your family. Creating comes out in so many ways. Enjoy each day!
